Subscribes to the crazy notion
that her retirement questions
shouldn’t be answered
by a call center.
Is it bizarre to believe your retirement concerns should be addressed
by an actual human being, not a menu of options? Of course not. That’s
why our more than 11,000 financial advisors are in neighborhoods like
yours, not a call center in who-knows-where. So face-to-face attention
is a given. Join the nearly 7 million investors who know. Face time and
think time make sense. www.edwardjones.com.

SYCBA AND YOU
If you are based in Southern York County – or do business here – we would like to extend an
invitation. The Southern York County Business Association is a local non-profit dedicated to helping businesses survive and thrive — regardless of how large you’ve become or how long you’ve been in operation.
For those with aspirations to launch a long-held dream, you’ll find yourself in good
company with those who’ve already made – or are contemplating - that transition.
SYCBA members range from sole proprietors to decision makers within the corporate sector; some provide services and others goods. And while we all have different dreams and different goals, we also all share
a common vision of doing well at what we do.
The Southern York County Business Association is dedicated to bringing local businesses together to help
them accomplish their individual goals. We know that each has their own unique needs – as well as contributions. And, as a collective unit, the SYCBA helps build business visibility, power
community enhancement projects and provide an opportunity to build connections as well as community.
The SYCBA meets monthly and provides an informal forum where members can meet and mingle, enjoy
casual lunches and listen to educational speakers who are both inspirational and informative. These venues
provide opportunities to network as well as to become active participants in activities and events that benefit local non-profits.
Our community fundraising events – which benefit many local non profit organizations - have helped
define SYCBA and provide a fun way for members to mix business and pleasure, enterprise and volunteerism. We encourage all members to participate in at least one activity or outreach each year.
In the meantime, Southern York County is a favorite locale with great opportunity. We again invite you to
attend our next meeting, held the second Tuesday of each month at 11:30 a.m., or to visit us online to learn
more.
Membership packages are conveniently priced and are now available at an annual cost of $80/$60 for non-profits.
Membership benefits include:

• Local exposure through a website listing with personalized contact information and a link back to your own
website.

• Print products distributed to every household in Southern York County, listing all members by name and
providing unique advertising opportunities and visibility.

• Fundraising events that provide sponsorship opportunities as well as a community
presence.

• For those so inclined, there are opportunities to actively participate in the life of the
organization.

16 - Southern York County Business Association - 2013

In September, the Southern York County Business Association hosted
its first ever walk/run/ride on the rail trail to raise money for H.O.P.E., a
local nonprofit that provides support and assistance for individuals and
families affected by cancer. $6,500 was donated to H.O.P.E as a result of the event. Several local businesses donated silent auction items
and the event was presented by York Internet & PC Solutions LLC and
sponsored by Howe Wood Products, Inc., D.E. Gemmill and Dennis D.
Smith Life and Health Insurance.
Pictured is Elsie "Arlene" Rinehart who raised over $1,000 and was
recognized for securing the most pledges of any participant. Sadly,
Arlene passed away just weeks after the fundraiser. The event has
been re-named in memoriam with Arlene as its namesake for future
events.

2012 was a growing and active year for the local non-profit Southern York County Business Association [SYCBA]. At the Dec
11th Holiday Social, held at Seven Bar and Grille in New Freedom, 86 members and guests were treated to lunch while Treasurer,
Mark Scott, shared a recap of community support and charitable donations during the year.
- $6,500 raised for H.O.P.E. during the SYCBA annual Walk, Run or Ride the Trail event
- $500 scholarship awarded to a SYCSD student pursuing post-secondary education in business
- $500 donated in support of the Southern York YMCA/ American Red Cross Blood Drive for Hurricane Sandy
Relief
- $400 sponsorship and donation to summer children’s programs through the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign
- $150 sponsorship in support of Southern Community Services Suicide Awareness & Prevention golf tournament
- $75 sponsorship of Rotary Club golf tournament to benefit the York County Library system
An announcement was made that the annual Walk, Run or Ride The Trail event will hereafter be named The Arlene Rinehart
Memorial Walk, Run, Ride for Charity. Arlene was the largest individual supporter of the inaugural event in September 2012,
raising the most money from pledges and “running” the Heritage Rail Trail in her wheelchair with the help of her Drayer Physical
Therapy friends. Arlene passed away suddenly, shortly after the event. She was an inspiration to all.
In addition to charitable giving, the annual recap highlighted community support and partnerships built in 2012. Their newest
initiative, in partnership with the York County Economic Alliance and Southern York County School District, is a Student Career
Experience Cooperative that matches Susquehannock High School students with SYCBA member businesses for real life job
experience. In the first three months of the program, eight member businesses have offered students internship-like projects
covering several areas of learning including design, graphics, and finance.
